Jules Gorget
MYC Collection
The MYC Collection was developed in collaboration with Protoclub and interdisciplinary artist, evolutionary biologist & sound designer Victoria Pham, founder of Earthly Futures. This body of work explores the potential of mycelium as a living material within the context of furniture design.
Over the course of one year, they developed a series of seating pieces that bring together two seemingly opposing forces: the radical precision of brushed aluminium and the wild, unpredictable growth of mycelium. Through a unique fabrication process, the mycelium is grown directly into the aluminium structure, merging structural rigidity with the organic elasticity of the fungal substrate.
Each piece exists in a state of tension—between industry and ecology, control and chance. No two works are the same; each carries its own singular material identity, shaped by both human intention and biological growth.
Within ROOTS – Sleeping Beauty, a Symbiotic Symphony, the work embodies a living awakening. The mycelium, often hidden beneath the surface, emerges here as an active agent—growing, adapting, and collaborating. It becomes part of a symbiotic symphony, where design is no longer imposed, but co-created with nature.
Jules invites the viewer to reconsider authorship and materiality, revealing a future in which objects are not simply made, but grown—alive, responsive and in constant transformation.
